Who knows what would’ve happened in 2009 if Garnett wasn’t out? Winning even one has to be considered an accomplishment.

If I’m Ainge, I just ride it out and hope you can put it together with a little bit of luck in the playoffs, then let Allen’s and KG’s contracts expire.

Sun, 04 Mar 2012 17:14:39 +0000http://probasketballtalk.nbcsports.com/?p=43170#comment-76330Rondo is an inconsistent, petulant, no outside/foul shot, extremely talented passer, ball handler, and rebounder. The Celtics win nothing with him since they have no true center and an aging core of almost has beens. Pierce is pretty much done except against inferior opponents, Allen has lost a step, and KG is certainly slowed by age/physical stress. The Celtics have become the Knicks: they might get to the playoffs but they will not get beyond round 1.

Sun, 04 Mar 2012 03:13:01 +0000http://probasketballtalk.nbcsports.com/?p=43170#comment-76250You’ve illustrated the problem, Goforth. You’ve assumed it’s a fact that Boston is shopping 4 of their 5 starters. But unless you just got off the phone with Ainge, you can’t know that. It’s a rumor, as is the author’s even more expansive claim that the Celtics are “clearly” shopping “everyone.” He doesn’t know that anymore than you or I do. Whether the team should shop everyone, whether they ultimately will are separate questions.

Sat, 03 Mar 2012 20:36:30 +0000http://probasketballtalk.nbcsports.com/?p=43170#comment-76179“A reporter for a major news outlet” – who are you talking about? Wojnarowski? We won’t know until March 15th, if even then, who was making up what. But only three days into this trade season, we’ve already seen pure speculation become individual opinion turned into rumor and then reported, blogged, and tweeted as fact. In the uncontrolled whirlwind of what is labeled sports journalism today, we should remain skeptical about every story, even if run by a “major news outlet.”
